Transportation

The Big Island of Hawaii is vast, and if you plan to explore extensively or stay for an extended period, we highly recommend renting a car from the KOA airport. A convenient airport shuttle will take you to the nearby rental car facility. Alternatively, the SpeediShuttle offers transportation from KOA to various island hotels. For a budget-friendly option, the Hele-On Bus, a government-funded service, provides transportation from KOA to Waikoloa and Waimea area resorts along Route 75. View the schedule here.


Things to Do


If you're staying at the Hilton Waikoloa Village, you'll have plenty of incredible activities to enjoy right at the resort. In addition, Charlie and Jade have curated a list of must-see attractions and experiences around the island. As the wedding date approaches, they will share their vacation itinerary on this site, and if you're interested, you can book the same activities and experience them together.

Some exciting activities to explore on the Big Island include:

 

  • Relaxing on unique island beaches, including stunning black sand, green sand, and white sand beaches

  • Swimming with dolphins or night snorkeling with manta rays

  • Exploring Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park with active volcanoes and sulphur banks

  • Horseback riding through breathtaking landscapes

  • Ziplining over waterfalls and through lush Hawaiian jungles
